Yojika numbers your bills automatically so the series is neat and gap-free. You can see how it works in the Invoice numbering card in Settings.
What the card shows
- Financial year — the year your bills are numbered under, such as
2025-26. In India this runs from 1 April to 31 March. - This device’s series — the letter used for bills made on this device (see below).
- Issued this year — how many bills you have made this financial year.
- Next invoice — the exact number your next bill will get, for example
INV2025-26/0001.
How a bill number is built
A bill number is made of three parts:
prefix + financial year + running number — for example INV2025-26/0042.
- The prefix (
INV) comes from your Business profile. Change it there — see Edit your business profile. - The financial year (
2025-26) is set automatically. - The running number (
0042) counts up by one with each bill.
The counter resets every April
On 1 April each year, the running number goes back to 0001 and the financial year moves on (for example from 2025-26 to 2026-27). This is normal and expected for Indian shops — every new financial year starts a fresh bill series.
Why you cannot edit the number
The next number is chosen for you and cannot be typed in by hand. This keeps your series gap-free — there are never missing or repeated bill numbers, which keeps your records clean for GST.
Using more than one device
If you use Yojika on a second device, that device gets its own series letter (so a bill might look like INV2025-26/B/0042). This means two devices never end up with the same bill number. Each series is counted separately in your GST reports.
